I always find these videos interesting and wish other students would share my charisma for them! I think classmates find them off putting because they never arrive at strong conclusions. This can be largely frustrating to some or largely satisfying to others. It just feels more satisfying to arrive at my own answers which the video allows me to do. I agree that judgment is more important than experience for the following reason: you can't really learn from experiences, unless you can judge the proper usefulness of their mistakes or successes! Therefore, it is judgment which makes learning possible and gives us the ability to make good decisions...a skill every successful business leader has.

I do not know if I agree with this guy or not. Just because you get other people's opinions does not mean they are always right or better. It is in your experience to foresee if a decision is good or not. I'm not saying you should not judge or ask for other people opinions. I'm just saying that your experience can give you more insight on a subject. However, when people judge, aren't they usually speaking from experience...? Experiences are not always mistakes either. So I do not agree with him.

When I first read the title of the video, I thought experience was more important. It only makes sense that the more experience you have with a certain task or situation, the better off you will be (that's why people practice to become good athletes). On the other hand, I do agree that having good judgment is extremely important as well. There are many times during anyone's career when they may not know an answer because they have not had any experience in a certain situation. At that point, you have to rely on your judgement to help you make a decision.

I think both are important. Often good judgment comes from experience. After all, how can you make a judgment on something you haven’t experienced? As the man said at the end of the video, “Judgment is more important and that’s my experience.” I believe he contradicts himself. You had to have “experience” before you made the judgment.

I believe current judgement is based on the results of prior experiences. However, I did find the statement regarding good judgement helpful. Those who possess good judgement tend to ask a lot of questions and take time to make an informed decision. One learns from each experience and if wise calls on those experiences to better there judgement.

Oh I absolutely agree with this. First, may I add that I do NOT think it's FAIR that MOST jobs want or REQUIRE experience. How can you get experience when everywhere requires experience to get the job in the first place?! It's not a fair game. Anyone can learn good judgment. At least there's a fair chance with that. He made a good point with how experience is where you make mistakes and hopefully learn from them which is definitely important. But good judgment is what it takes to avoid those mistakes in the first place.

I think you need both equally. Sometimes judgement brings on experience and vice versa so I think that that are both needed about the same. Some people feel as if they are highly experienced that they know they world and all of it's troubles better, but sometimes that might not be the case. Someone who judges things very well can be just as knowledgeable about the outcome as the experienced person. SO yes, have both.

I think that you can only have good judgment if you have had experience. If you have never experienced anything, then how are you going to know if you are making good judgment calls. I do not think that you can have one without the other. With that, I also believe that good judgment comes with experience. And at some point, you must have made bad judgment calls to know what are good judgment calls. But ultimately, it comes with time and experience.

Judgement is good if there are enough questions asked. However, I think experience is the true learning tool about decision making. People are always going to make the best decision they can with the information provided at that time. People can't predict the future though so it almost always comes back to experience.

To me, experience is far more important that judgment. In a sense, experience is always accompanied by judgment but someone doesn't need experience to make a judgment. When I think about my business and all the business decisions I must make, I have to rely on my intuition and recognize what other businesses have done in similar situations. But I always go back to when my mom owned her own business and what that was like for me.

I would disagree with his opinion. The definition of experience is having a skill or knowledge that you get by doing something. This means you do not have to necessarily make a mistake to have experience even though most people make mistakes when experiencing things. Judgement doesn't always mean people know how to judge properly especially if they have never been in that particular situation before. On the other hand experience can guide a person through making rational and logical decisions or judgement calls.

I would have to agree to a certain extent with Ferrari. I do believe that judgment will bring you further down the road in your career, but experience prevents you from making the same mistakes. If you have a good sense of judgment you may be able to avoid making mistakes, but I am still stuck on the notion of learning from your mistakes. You are meant to fail, everyone is human, everyone fails, it is how you respond to the failure that creates the experience. So I am 50-50 with the opinion of Ferrari.

I believe that judgement is more important then experience. Withought judgement a person woudnt learn from their experience since they wouldnt fully be thinking about what their doing before doing it. Everyone makes mistakes but judgeing the mistake will make you learn from it and have better judgement in the future.

I would have to disagree with this video, in my experiences I find that experience is just as important as using judgment. There may have a situation where there is an issue that you have dealt with before and are familiar with that will be important for you to use both your experience and judgment to come to a conclusion. As well as it is better to have experience to reference then always having to make judgment that make effect the matter negatively.

I believe judgement is a base for experience. You can have experience in a certain field or position, but if you are not doing it correctly then the experience you've gained would not matter. Judgement on the other hand, is something that you would be born with or grow into. Good judgement is important in any day to day activities, and impacts all aspects of how a business is running.
